STATION BLUE

Welcome to STATION BLUE, the only blue station beyond the green. Hundreds of trains will pass this stop every day. Please dare to step out of the train and discover the edgy and noisy station. Beyond green will take place on the 9th of November in the World Fashion Centre. You will find STATION BLUE in the hall of the WFC. We will present you our vision on sustainable jeans. Leave all the happy pink flowers and nice little green smiling tree’s for what they are. Mother nature is angry and she will take revenge. See you at the station. And don’t forget to carry a valid ticket with you. Or else….

SWAP STORE

The SWAP STORE invites visitors to bring their old vintage garments and to swap them for something new. Swapping is not another excuse for the recession. This sharing phenomenon is part of a bigger movement: the rise of conscious consumers who are re-defining the value of things that surround and decorate us.
